Besides the on-court production, you´d have to buy out his full contract including a full 2022/2023 guarantee. The last year of his contract (2022/2023) is only partially guaranteed at $3.9M, which makes him an actual trade asset as early as next season. We could use his "expiring" contract to match Lavine or Beal.
Remember back when Eric Bledsoe was at least good at defense?
